Simple example with two pages that demonstrates the bug

I have boiled this down to one simple example (attached) where I have created two pages, one with a button to jump to the second page. The first page contains the button which is a group of two objects. 

To reproduce, open the attached presentation, right click the group on the first page and choose "Interaction" from the context menu. Then select "Go to page or object" and the name of the second page ("Test") in the list box below. Press OK.

Confirm this works by clicking the grouped object (either in Edit or Presentation mode).

Now save the presentation and exit LibreOffice. Reopen the just saved presentation and click on the grouped object - it doesn't jump to the second page anymore.

A workaround is to set the "Go to page or object" on one of the individual objects (either "Enter group" or ungroup/regroup to do this).
Comment 1 sasha.libreoffice 2012-04-02 08:22:46 UTC
reproduced in 3.3.4 and 3.5.1 on Fedora 64 bit
changing version to 3.3.4 as most early reproducible
Comment 2 sasha.libreoffice 2012-04-02 08:35:58 UTC
for comparison: in msPP 2007 adding interaction to grouped objects impossible at all. I do not know if ODF format allows this to save.
Comment 3 A (Andy) 2013-04-24 21:50:27 UTC
reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit)

Comment 5 Klaus Bucka-Lassen 2015-03-06 09:23:13 UTC
Reproduced in LibreOffice 4.3.5.2 on Windows 7.

Exact same behavior as described in the original bug report.

A bit of extra information though: After setting the interaction of the grouped object to "Go to page or object" and assigning the target "Test" you are supposed to save the presentation, close down LibreOffice. Then restart LibreOffice and load the presentation. If you now check the set interaction of the grouped object, it still says "Go to page or object", but the target is gone. Somehow that seems not to have been saved.

Comment 14 Mike Kaganski 2024-08-08 18:41:20 UTC
This was fixed in version 6.4 by commit 03edebda393ea684803b7a0da72f33655bdc24d1 (tdf#127791 defer import of group shape events until the group is popped).

The unselected state of the slide in the interaction dialog, as reported in comment 5, is something different. It was never implemented to select the target in the list on open. It is obvious, when you reopen the dialog immediately after assigning a target and pressing OK - in all versions, including the problematic ones. However, in correctly working cases, the target is mentioned in the bottommost box. Making the item in the list selected is a separate possible enhancement.

Note by the way, that the target was all this time saved correctly; the problem was, that it wasn't read when loading.
